Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Roman Mischief-Maker: Her Teaching and Practice It has been said that fine literature, like fine art generally, is simply the expression of intense feeling. I cannot hope that this book will be deemed fine literature, but I can at least say that it is the offspring of deep feeling and conviction: it comes from the heart. Facit indignatio versum; the events and experiences of the last few years compel me to speak out. The impulses which have induced me to write these pages are in no sense ecclesiastical, but social, national, and human: they are wholly unsectarian, the book does not seek to establish any religious theory. The writer has not "got the Vatican on the brain," but is rather of the opinion that too much has been said and written concerning the attitude of the Roman Hierarchy towards the Entente during the war, too little about the hostile sentiments and action of the Church as a whole. His religious views are essentially of the "broad" description; he is in no sense inspired by Protestant prejudice or partisan bias of any kind, and, as he enjoys the privilege of the friendship of staunch Catholics, he is in no way desirous (to quote a newspaper phrase) of "restoring the theological temperature of the days of Titus Oates." There appears to be a rather general opinion prevalent in this country that many of the questions here dealt with partake of the nature of dead issues.
